width for single or pair

Guide on width for single or pair:

Single panel: one individual panel of fabric. Made to cover an entire span or as a decorative stationary panel.

Pair: Two Equal Parts, 1 left, 1 right. The total width coverage you specify will be automatically divided in 2.

Ripple Fold: The fabric fullness is already accounted for in the design, we suggest 1.0 time wide of your curtain track.

About 200% fabric width is used for wave folds to create the finished width you order. For example, if you width you would like to cover is 120 inches, you need a single panel with a order width of 120 inches; if you need pair, then order a width of 120 inches, and you will be receiving 2 panels each 60 inches width.

For 120 inches wide, drapery fabric comes with about 240 inches width, the finished width is 120 inches after the wave fold is made.

CARE

Dry-clean only: Please note that steaming and drying processes may cause slight dimensional changes. Hang the curtains immediately after dry cleaning to minimize.

Ironing: Use a garment steamer on low heat while curtains hang to remove creases. If flat ironing, always use low heat and a pressing cloth. Avoid direct high heat, do not leave the iron/steamer in one spot for too long, and always test a hidden area first.

Color Fading: Natural cotton-linen oxidises and fades with daylight exposure, especially in dark-colored curtains.

We recommend adding a 100% blackout lining (150gsm 2-pass coated or 250gsm 3-pass coated) to improve fade and oxidation resistance.

Features of Velvet Drapery

Luxurious Feel

Velvet is a soft, luxurious fabric that is characterized by a dense pile of evenly cut fibers that have a smooth nap. It has a beautiful drape and a unique soft and shiny appearance. Velvet can help glam up the look and style of a room and make spaces feel more sophisticated and grown up.

Warmth

Warm fabric and can keep your home elegant and heated during cold weather. It's thick, soft, and durable. Velvet's dense pile traps air, which creates insulation. Velvet curtains are thick and can add warmth and cosiness to a room. They can also block out light and retain heat.

Pet-friendly

Fabric can be considered pet-friendly because it's durable and can withstand wear and tear from pets. Velvet is tightly woven, so it's scratch-resistant and difficult to snag. It's also stain-resistant because the short fibers prevent liquids and odors from seeping in.

Normally stacking width accounts for 20% of the ordered width. So we would like to remind you that if you want the window opening to show completely when the drapery is opened, please make sure to consider stacking width when you decide on rod length.

Spacing hooks between 4 1/4 inches is suggested.

200% fabric width is used for wave folds to create the finished width you order. Adding additional fabric to create fullness is unnecessary.

If the curtain finished length is over 108 inches, then the max finished curtain width without seam is 56 inches; if the curtain length is less than 108 inches, no seam for any curtain finished width. Otherwise, the width needs to be double-wide with a vertical seam.

Neutral Theme

Less is more. In the context of interior design, neutral means without color. Neutrals such as beige, ivory, taupe, black, gray, and shades of white appear to be without color. but in many applications these hues often have undertones. Be aware of these underlying tones as you match colors. Neutral colors are muted shades that appear to lack color but often have underlying hues that change with different lighting. To some extent, blacks, browns, tans, golds, and beige are considered warm. Cooler colors, on the other hand, are white, ivory, silver, and gray.
